Hi together, 

anyone to tell me how to activate W-LAN on the Notebook above?

 

After I replaced the hdd for SSD, there's no W-LAN available using Win10 (64bit). Can't find a W-LAN-Chip on the device-manager. Serial is: [Personal Information Removed].

 

Thank you for all posts! 

 

Regards

simon

Hi, Simon:

 

The only suggestion I can offer would be to unplug the PC, remove the battery and remove and reseat the Wi-Fi adapter.

 

W10 should have automatically installed a driver for the Realtek RTL8723BE Wi-Fi card your notebook comes with, so there is some kind of hardware issue if you were running W10 on the mechanical hard drive when you replaced it.

 

Leave the antenna wire connected to for easier reinstallation if you can.

 

Below is the link to the service manual:
